small bulge

No comments please! I'm looking for a small, tear drop shaped bulge (not the big bonnet bulge type things). Does anyone know of any suppliers?
Thanks in advance.

Could do with something smaller than what is described as the smaller cod piece. Ideally about 10 to 15 cm long. I've spent the afternoon trawling model aircraft etc sites to no avail.

PBV102 12 Inch Teardrop power bulge



12 inches any good?
I suppose it depends on the size of your cod

Well, I've really walked into this but... 12" is really going to be too big. I could do with something about 6" long. Go on, say it!

How about just cutting a suitable section out of a melon, wrapping in cling film and laying up GRP over that? Then a bit of filler to smooth off the outer surface

Cheers

I could actually make a foam and epoxy plug, an aluminised epoxy mould and then lay up a nice 2x2 twill carbon bulge but my time is better spent on other things at the moment. I guess I just need to get on with it.
